Does it matter what kind of stone ?
@BradAllenWoodworkingCo 3 ай бұрын
Good question! No- as long as the stone is strong enough so that it doesn’t fall apart and smooth enough so that it doesn’t scratch the item you are burnishing. It’s possible to use other items that meet those requirements, like a deer antler, possibly some glass or porcelain items, the backside of a metal spoon bowl, etc… Just make sure whatever you are trying to use to burnish, you can easily hold, effectively burnish with and be able to achieve a good technique.

Great video, thanks. Nice spoon carving. I have this knife, and I prefer it to be hard to close rather than easy since it is slip joint and not locking. Good flexcut has one carving jack knife 🔪 that does not lock for the people who live in places that do not allow lock blades. They have other models that are upgraded. The new 2.0 models are a little better fit and finish. The new models open and close better plus contoured handle upgrade.

Hey, I just bought a “Mora 162”, but it looks exactly like this. Do you know if they merged the 162/164, turning it into this?
@BradAllenWoodworkingCo 6 ай бұрын
Hey there! I just looked it up and it looks likely that’s what happened. The original 162 had a circular curve, not a gradual steep-to-shallow curve. When I just just now looked up mora 162 on google, the “162S” showed up which looks like this 164. In this video I am reviewing what I believe was the second version of the mora 164 which was meant to be improved in several ways from the original design.
@whengrapespop5728 6 ай бұрын
@@BradAllenWoodworkingCo Thanks for the reply! Yeah, mine says “162S”. I’m not complaining, but I have to say your older videos really sold me on the previous 162 being a workhorse, which I eventually leaned towards wanting after watching your reviews.😅 I guess I’ll just have to explore various hand positions to achieve the same type of efficiency. I appreciate your videos, learned a lot - thank you!

I started oiling my new bamboo spoon before I realized it was rough in the bowl. Can I still burnish it even though it has oil on it?
@BradAllenWoodworkingCo 6 ай бұрын
I would say you can burnish before or after oiling. If you are using an oil that polymrizes (hardens) try burnish soon after applying (don’t wait for it to harden/solidify) I have not worked with Bamboo but to my knowledge the fibers are pretty large and could be difficult to get a good burnished finish on
@Metqa 9 ай бұрын
i have a brand new bamboo spoon that feels smooth when rubbed in one direction and like a porcupine cactus in the other. Sanding would just make it worse so do I just find any random smooth stone and burnish it down? This is not a craft of mine, I just don't want it to give me a splinter on my hand or in my food.
@BradAllenWoodworkingCo 6 ай бұрын
Bamboo is a tricky one- I don’t know how effective burnishing would be at getting rid of that protruding grain. If you do burnish I would try burning in the direction of the grain (the same direction that it feels smooth) Any smooth stone, marble or even the back of a metal spoon could be worth trying to burnish with. You definitely want the burnisher to be really smooth- like glass surface smooth.

Burnish the design and whole spoon first then oil. The burnishing locks the color-filler into the wood but pushing the wood fibers back down.

Good afternoon Brad, I'm enjoying your videos. Question, what is your main go to wood for carving spoons and cups?
@BradAllenWoodworkingCo Жыл бұрын
Hey Daniel, really great question. There are a lot of woods out there and each type of wood has its benefits and downfalls so I say try carving anything, or whatever you can most easily source from around you. I use cherry wood because it’s easier to come by around where I live in Connecticut. I also usually carve it green or wet/fresh if you let a word dry out before carving and it tends to be pretty hard and brittle. Some people like that but I really enjoy Greenwood carving.

@BradAllenWoodworkingCo Жыл бұрын
I could see that happening. Dry maple is really hard, and seasoned maple like that might be too far gone. If it’s dry old branches that have fallen off the tree in the wind then it probably is too old. I really like to find my wood on the side of the road where they have recently done some cutting back, or at parks/hiking spots where they have recently cut back some of the brush or trees. Another great place can be golf courses, they usually have a ton of brush and logs. Just look for a branch/log that is straight with no knots. Like I said cherry is my favorite but birch can also be good, it’s a little softer.

Hello! I have the more 162 with Sharp Edge on both sides. And i always use pucjcuts, never the pullcuts. Im right handed.. it feels more natural to push for me. So i have been thinking om buying singelbladed 164 so i can get my finger at the spine for Harder cuts. But i see that i will have to buy the lefthanded to get the blade on the «right» side for me. Is this wrong? Should you always use the pullcuts? Any advantadges im missing?

Hey Tony! I think it is all preference! I also would say don’t totally exclude any type of cut from use, because as you develop your carving skills I think you start to rely on a variety of grips and cuts.
